On Meet the Press's "Press Pass" released today, actress Ashley Judd praised President Obama and declared that she was "fired up" for his re-election.
"I think that he is a powerful leader, I think that he is a brilliant man I think that he has an incredible devotion to our Constitution, and that he is now able to flower more as the president I knew he could be," Judd said about Obama.






A passionate campaign surrogate of Obama's 2008 campaign, Judd admitted that she was a little discouraged during his first term in office. Part of what reignited her passion, she said, was the president's support for gay marriage.

"That moved me to tears," she said, referring to the president's announcement.

When asked by David Gregory what she thought about Mitt Romney, Judd admitted that she actually had little idea of what he stood for.

"To be perfectly honest, I haven't paid that much attention to him because I'm so into my guy," she said, saying she was too busy working on her new TV show to pay attention to the presidential race at this point, but added she knew something about Romney's platform from his primary fight against Rick Santorum.

Judd said she disagreed with Romney on the economy, environment, the role of government and regulation and "girls and women and their participation in the public space."

When asked by Gregory what would energize Obama's supporters in the fall, Judd cited Republicans "saying really dumb things" about "women's reproductive health."
"Here we are in America in 2010 talking about whether modern family planning is useful!" she exclaimed, after reminding Gregory that she often spoke about contraception with women in third-world countries.

  1. Hey Judd,

    Wonder how you are going to feel when you are paying 75% in taxes? When will the ligh bulb go on with the libs? Answer: NEVER

    Or better yet Ashley, do a Warren and start paying 75% now, and please don't wait. Or just write a ten dollar check to Obamacare just to help out!!!!!!!!!! Just my opinion

  3. I guess Ashley hasn't heard, by video, some of the comments our President has made about the "Constitution being out-dated," nor his REFUSAL to follow the "rule of law" as set out IN our Constitution! (Hollywood IS SO DUMB!)

  4. Gosh, who cares what celebrities say. Most of them are just useful idiots. Think about it, they make their living spewing other people thoughts and ideas, not their own. I have grown up around too many mindless Hollywood folks and I know for which I speak. Americans should not listen to words, they should only consider deeds. Consider the source!!!
